bitcoin is really very strong .your friend may be true that casinos are hackable ,in the past we have seen that it have been hacked .well in case of bitcoin wallet it is 256 bit encryption which is very helpful , so our bitcoins are encrypted and safe within our self.

Yeah, there has been no known hack in the past of any Bitcoin wallet (except those that got a very weak password like "password" or so). You cannot hack it, and I guess if someone found an exploit in Bitcoin's security it could mean the end of the cryptocurrencies. At the moment there are no vulnerabilities.

The popularity of PayPal, especially because it can be used with most credit cards, makes Bitcoin look like it doesn't even exist. There are probably tens of millions of transactions through PayPal every day, while with Bitcoin.. I don't think so. The coin with the best popularity wins because that means it has the highest demand. But soon people will maybe wake up to the reality and find out they do not really need to be looked after by governments all the time ..

Nothing. I always lose it. A few days ago I started with 0.05 BTC and had the opportunity to cash out at 18 btc, but I got greedy and lost it all. It fucking hurts
We always have 2 options with our winning amounts : 1. Withdraw profits 2. Continue gambling.

Why not you try 50% - 50%. It will feed your greedy as well as get you chances to earn big (but comparatively slower).
I like to suggest you to give another attempt with same 0.05BTC but this time secure some profits time to time. Good luck !

I agree with your possible options what you're going to do with your winnings. I hope you are doing that as well. You don't have to be so greedy when doing it. I had already earned much with not that much of investment, but I think if you really play continuously, you are going to lose.

That's cool, this 50-50 idea will also help on deciding whether it is profitable or not. We can know if the winnings will not be able to use again to gambling. Though, There is a need to control once in a while , if it doesn't benefited us that much , that we can't even secure even small amount on it ,or we keep depositing on gambling that makes the winnings negative ,better quit.


Are you sure that the "50-50" idea helps with anything? It doesn't.. because you start with an idea, like "I will only double my money", and even if you triple your money you will be tempted to go for even more bets and so on until you lose either all or at least 85% of your winnings. And you will want once again to gamble..
3524  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: January 29, 2017, 05:17:32 PM
I see there is so many people trying hard to stop gambling their money because they've losing so much
If you not ready to lose your money, then don't even try to gamble!

I think self discipline is number one reason why there are lots of gamblers losing to much of their money.Perhaps if we just have this virtues we will never experience to lose of money Or some are ready to play in the gambling sites but internally there are not ready to lose their money.

Try to gamble with $100 deposited and tell me when you will stop because you "contrilled yourself".. you won't, it is really not that easy to control the temptation. Especially when you have that feeling that you will win, you will not be able to do so.
3525  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC is Gold 2.0 – What humanity has been waiting for centuries on: January 29, 2017, 03:50:44 PM
It's more of an improved Gold, but with only one disadvantage: it depends on electricity and/or internet connection. Otherwise I love it and I think it really is the greatest innovation I had ever seen. The most important features are the portability because you can carry billions with you on a small piece of paper or on a phone app, and the anonymity which is useful in many scenarios!
3526  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how to explain bitcoin advantage ?? on: January 29, 2017, 03:25:40 PM
Both starting your own faucet and starting your own news blog can actually be started from 0. You can start for example a faucet with just a $1 deposit in your faucet account, and if you want a news blog it's even more simple: you start with nothing as you can get a free Blogger or Wordpress domain, and as soon as you get enough monthly visitors you can move to a ".com" domain that will be yours only. Search for Faucet scripts, there are plenty of them and completely free.
3527  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you like best about bitcoin? on: January 29, 2017, 02:51:39 PM
Bitcoin pay is very easy and convenient thing to have access to the Internet. It is great for travel, at any time can be converted into the desired currency. Its volatility can be either negative or positive indicator for differential rate can make a profit. A significant negative is the duration of the transaction but it is not so often the case.
That is right that the usage of bitcoin is very convenient I do not need to go outside of the home for the recharge of my mobile phone but from my home I do recharge my mobile phone. For me volatility is not a problem because I know that the price is in positive direction.

Not only i am comfortable with recharging, in my country they are allowing me to book movie tickets. Bitcoin is becoming most popular and convenient  way for using all ways like movies, shopping, recharges etc.

Good to hear, I wish we had this many features here too but you know, it has to begin with small steps for it to become a big thing! Cheesy it sounds great to recharge or book movies within a few taps only.. it is anonymous and faster than any other method too.
3528  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Best Wallet Software? on: January 29, 2017, 02:26:45 PM
For safety? The original wallet, the one that has to be synced on your PC. If your PC isn't infected with viruses, it's the best one you can go for: 100% safe and secure. If you want to use a portable wallet though, you have to use for example Blockchain or another web wallet. That doesn't bring you as much safety, but it is still OK to use with small amounts of money.
3529  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Withdraw BTC if underage? on: January 29, 2017, 01:00:24 PM
Well, you see, Bitcoin was created to keep your anonymity when transferring money, buying or selling stuff online etc.. so you don't need to use your CC or PayPal to exchange BTC into fiat. In order to do that, you can go to ATMs that are BUYING Bitcoin. Look them up on Google, a quick search about the ATMs around you will give you a list of them. Unfortunately the only one I have in my country that accepts buying is too far away from me.. Cheesy

Bitcoin was created by satoshi as a decentralized currency. But, since china has huge mining power, most of the bitcoins are mined by chinese miners.Obviously, chinese hold majority of bitcoins so that they could decide the price of bitcoin. For every small changes occuring in china related tl bitcoin, it has a world wide impact.Its not good for bitcoin progress. Unfortunately, we have to accept that china controls the Bitcoin.

How does china control Bitcoin?  If you look at the mining charts, though several mining farm is located at china, it does not mean that chinese government own them.  This are different company with different people.  So there is no way that China is controlling bitcoin

Not the government. It's about the total percentage of online mining hardware. These mining farms may be low (in number), but they are HUGE. Just write "bitcoin farm china" on Google and look up some images and see how big they are. As far as I know, they control over 68% of the total mining hash speed.
3531  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Definitive PROOF that Satoshi Nakamoto is about to be exposed because ... on: January 29, 2017, 11:36:22 AM
There are many potential contestants to be the real Satoshi Nakamoto but all who have claimed that they are Satoshi Nakamoto have failed to prove that they are the right person. Craig Wright has shaken the bitcoin y industry with his claim and evidence or proof that he is the rightful creator of bitcoin but failed in the last moment. In the end Satoshi Nakamoto remains a mystery and it never be unveiled.

If one of them was Satoshi it would've been very easy to prove it. When he created the cryptocurrency and then tried to hide himself.. he knew the day will come when he will have to prove it. The "fight", the competition between the people that are claiming to be the BTC owners are all about the money they can make out of this "reveal"..
3532  Other / Archival / Re: Earning "free" bitcoins on: January 29, 2017, 11:26:31 AM
You can surf all faucets and make some satoshi.Now with bitcoin on a high price is profitable to surf some faucets.
Also you can try gambling for fast earnings.

That's right, there's so many faucet out there specially the xapo faucets

Tell me when you are going to earn a BTC out of it. It is free Bitcoins, but... I don't know, I would rather call it a way of earning Free Satoshis. It takes a lot of time to earn even a dollar from them..1BTC would take you maybe years to get. I would rather stick with sig campaigns, it's even more entertaining than faucets!
3533  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Definitive PROOF that Satoshi Nakamoto is about to be exposed because ... on: January 28, 2017, 03:37:42 PM
It'd be a sham, in my opinion, if Coindesk is the developer of Bitcoin. I wanted to create a wallet there and you have to input your legal name. I want to be anonymous, not a public Bitcoin user, you know.. these rumors also don't have any real proof though.
3534  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Great way to make Bitcoin! on: January 28, 2017, 03:02:51 PM
there's some a great way to make bitcoin like trading altcoin/bitcoin
Gambling is fast to make btc but it is very risky to lose too.
yes i am agree with u gambling is too risky because its not possible that we will win every time gambling depends on luck and yeah trading is the great way to make bitcoin.

do you think that trading is such an easy way of making money if you do not have any experience and knowledge in trading? to me if a person do not have experience and knowledge about trading and if he do not have trading skill then there is not difference between trading and gambling.

I am not say that trading is easy to make bitcoin
I just say that great way to make bitcoin than gambling. Of course we need a skill and experience to do that.
I don't think trading and gambling is not difference. Gambling is depend on you luck but trading is need experience.

Yes, trading works only with experience. Otherwise you cannot really make profit unless you also rely on luck. To be a trader you have to be up to date with all the existing news, and if possible you should also have people that can give you the news before they actually happen (like political moves - having a lawyer friend can get you to some information that can be important).
3535  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: January 28, 2017, 02:40:25 PM

There's no easiest way to make profit from gambling unless you are the casino's owner.

Even casino owners are having difficult time to make profit in the first place. Because they need to promote their site and they need to build their trust. But that is going to be worth it when everything was setup already. And yes they will be the ones who are going to have the easiest way of earning in gambling by simply monitoring and managing their site.
Correct, there is a lot of competition in the online gambling world now and its not easy to build trust to bring in new players.

And they need to do a lot of advertising, events and other giveaways to make their site known. The investment that they are allocating in able to get good future profit is really tough, we just can say that they are the ones who are easy to make profit from simply being the owner. But in reality, they went through different hardships.
- Making money is never easy, every job has certain difficulties. We should not consider subjective problem
- Online gambling also have difficulties. Owners also have different risks

Is gambling really a job..? I do not think so.

Owning a casino, yes, includes some risks like someone finding an exploit and stealing all your money like it happened to PrimeDice or someone being very very lucky and winning your whole bankroll. It's usually profitable but it doesn't always go 100% perfect..
3536  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would be the best legal / illegal ways to earn Bitcoin? on: January 28, 2017, 01:53:10 PM
Illegal? Drug trading, probably. And legal.. depends on how much you want to earn. For pocket money, you can earn it off this forum. For a salary, you have to either find a job that pays in Bitcoins which I do not recommend because of the instability of the price (never make a living just off Bitcoin) or you can start your own business, like placing different and many ATMs that exchange BTC around the world.
3537  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is Satoshi? Why did he hide his identity? on: January 28, 2017, 11:50:49 AM
I think we all know that satoshi is the one who created  with the help of other's of course,
and he hides him/herself because of all the government that is hunting him/her because of tax evasion
i don't think if he is still earning from it as a creater of it he doesn't have any problem in gaving tax to the government i think there are some other reason that we can't judge.....

He probably isn't earning from it but he probably got hundreds of thousands of Bitcoins in his wallets. I wish I had at least 10BTC since Bitcoin was $1, but I was too late at the party so I got my first ones since Bitcoin was $1100. He should have known this project will go big.
3538  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where to Invest BTC? on: January 28, 2017, 11:15:52 AM
If you want to invest your bitcoin, I suggest you invest it in ethtrade and/or recyclix! Those two are my most trusted sites and still paying for almost two years! Be careful in investing your bitcoin because there are lots of scam sites nowadays. If the site is promising you a high return, you should be doubtful because i've been scammed many times before.

No, I would recommend you not to put your money in others' accounts. There have been many cases, even if the website hasn't been proved to be a scam, where a so-called "hack" emptied all accounts. Wouldn't you better have your own funds, managing them accordingly to your needs?
3539  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buy a car with bitcoin on: January 28, 2017, 09:41:57 AM
Amazing.. It looks like more and more businesses are starting to accept Bitcoin. What makes me sad though is that I cannot buy all these things with Bitcoin in my country.. I don't have more than 10 shops that accept it which is a shame. I keep thinking about starting my own BTC business. If America brings that many businesses accepting Bitcoin, I am wondering what would a BTC Mall be like.
3540  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: As it turns out, Craig Wright actually is Satoshi! on: January 27, 2017, 12:36:46 PM
I heard about Craig Wright before but I doubt he is the real creator of Bitcoin. If he really was the one, he should come with real, actual proofs that he owns it, or that he created it. We also have to remember that we are living pretty tough times to make this claim and really be the creator of such an idea that "is used by criminals".
